If you really must have this feature, have you considered paying somebody (either one of the PCB developers or an independent consultant) to generate a patch to add this functionality to your copy of PCB? I would expect that you will probably have to pay an industry standard consulting rates to get something non-trivial like this developed (integration into PCB mainline is probably more complicated since the PCB developers would have to agree with all the changes). And before we all go into flame mode, please read: http://geda.seul.org/wiki/geda:faq#tool_xxx_is_missing_critical_feature_yyy_what_can_i_do As an aside, I haven't heard of anybody going the path suggested in the third bullet for their favorite "must have" feature(s). -Ales PS. I certainly do not speak for any of the PCB developers. -- Ales Hvezda ahvezda @ seul.org http://geda.seul.org/ _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
